The Rim Church

We share the gospel & our lives with everyday people until Christ returns.

"With Everyday People"

In this message from John 4, we explore Jesus’ encounter with the Samaritan woman and how it reveals His heart to cross barriers and meet us in our deepest need. We're reminded that the living water He offers satisfies far beyond what the world can give, inviting us to let Him transform our hearts from the inside out.

"And Our Lives"

This message dives into Acts 2:42–47, showing how the early church’s way of living flowed from truly knowing Jesus’ sacrificial love. It invites us to do the same—to live changed lives that are honest, open, and full of grace, so others can experience God’s love through us.

"Share the Gospel"

We’re exploring our mission to share the gospel and our lives with everyday people until Christ returns—the good news that Jesus came to rescue us from sin, death, and despair, bringing forgiveness for our past, purpose for our present, and hope for our future. As we remember how He came to bring good news to the poor and set the captives free, we’re challenged to love others enough to step into the “water” and share this life-changing message with them.

"We"

Are we truly embracing our calling as ambassadors for Christ? This message from 2 Corinthians 5 reminds us that all who are in Christ are new creations with a ministry of reconciliation, called to be God’s co-workers—compelled by the fear of the Lord and the love of Christ—to share the gospel in our everyday lives, even when we feel discouraged, knowing that God is still working behind the scenes.

Our Renewed Mission as a Church

We’re reminded from 1 Thessalonians 2 and Acts 17 that opposition in our faith doesn’t mean we’re outside God’s will—often it means we’re right in the center of it, just as the early disciples faced persecution yet boldly shared the gospel. As people entrusted with the good news, we’re challenged not only to proclaim it but to live it authentically, offering both the gospel and our lives in a way that demonstrates our hope in Christ

A Call to Remember

We explored the spiritual power of remembering as Moses calls the Israelites—and us—to recall the wilderness, God’s faithfulness, and our own tendency to forget. By reframing the wilderness as a place of intimacy and dependence on God, it challenges us to see our struggles not as punishment, but as training grounds for deeper faith.

The Waters of Baptism

Have we truly grasped the profound meaning of baptism? More than a ritual, it is a transformative experience of identity, reality, and mystery—uniting us with Christ in His death and resurrection, reminding us through Matthew 28 and Romans 6 that we are beloved children of God called to live as new creations.

We'll Leave the Light On For You

In our journey of faith, we often struggle to share the good news of Christ, but Luke 12 gives us three keys to overcome hesitation: cultivating a healthy fear of God that brings boldness, trusting the Spirit’s guidance over our own scripts, and living with urgency in light of Christ’s return. These truths challenge us to step out in faith, trusting God to equip us so we can confidently and authentically witness to His transformative work in our lives.

Space for Fire

We are challenged to examine our hunger for God’s presence, reminding us through Pentecost in Acts 1–2 that revival begins where people are repentant, obedient, and ready for His fire to fall. We’re invited to renew our desperation for Him, creating space in our lives to become altars prepared for His transforming presence.

The Closet No One Sees

In our journey of faith, we’re called to cultivate a secret place with God—a private space of intimacy and transformation rooted. This isn’t about quick or performative spirituality, but consistently meeting with Him, allowing His presence to deepen our love and shape us into His image. The question is: are we willing to make room in our busy lives to meet with God?

Uncluttered Connection

This message explores what it means to contend with singleness, not just be content in it. We were reminded that singleness is not second-class, but a unique opportunity to reflect the sufficiency of the gospel. Together, we wrestled with questions of loneliness, sexuality, and purpose—keeping our eyes on Jesus and His coming kingdom.

Love & War

We are invited to shift our focus from relationship mechanics to the deeper truth found in Ephesians 5—that marriage is a reflection of Christ’s relationship with the Church. It reminds us that our identity is rooted in being imitators of God, and that pursuing Christ above all else naturally transforms every relationship in our lives.

Into-Me-See

This sermon on biblical dating highlights Genesis 2 and reminds us that dating is not a destination but a process of discerning covenant, marked by clarity, boundaries, and devotion to God. As we navigate modern relationships, we’re encouraged to seek wisdom from Scripture, be led by the Spirit, and rely on our faith community for guidance and accountability.

Sacred or Crowded?

In this week's message from the "Make Room" series, we explore what it means to welcome Jesus into the most intimate areas of our lives—specifically, the bedroom. Centered on John 8:1–11, the story of the woman caught in adultery, we’re reminded of Jesus’ radical grace and His invitation to transformation over condemnation. This sermon challenges us to move beyond shame, legalism, and cultural distortion, and instead embrace the healing, redemptive intimacy that Christ offers.

Are you not Entertained?

We’re invited to reconsider how entertainment shapes our hearts—moving from distraction to deeper connection with God. In Luke 15, the Father’s joy reminds us that God delights in our delight when it draws us closer to Him. Spirit-led leisure becomes a way to grow in love, joy, and lasting peace.

Overbooked but Underfed

This message challenges us to slow down and examine how the noise and busyness of life may be choking out God's voice, drawing from the Parable of the Sower and the story of Mary and Martha. We're invited to create space in our lives to nurture our spiritual growth by choosing the "one thing necessary"—sitting at Jesus' feet.

Enough is Enough

This week’s message challenges us to rethink what “enough” really means. Drawing from Matthew 6:19-34, we’re reminded to store up treasures in heaven and follow God’s blueprint, not our own. It’s a call to seek first the kingdom of God, trust in His provision, and view life through the lens of eternity. True fulfillment doesn’t come from more stuff—it comes from letting Jesus be enough.

The Dirty Work of Repentance

Repentance is Jesus' first and ongoing invitation—not just a mindset, but an action that restores intimacy with God. Through confession, restitution, and transformation, we’re called to return to our first love and stay in relationship with Christ.

Fathered by God

In this message, we’re invited to reexamine our view of God through the lens of Jesus, who reveals the true nature of our Heavenly Father. Drawing from Genesis 35 and the story of Benjamin’s renaming, we’re reminded that God is not distant or harsh, but caring, consistent, and close—offering us healing, identity, and a renewed foundation for faith.

Raising Rugrats

On Sunday, Kelly unpacked seven key themes that reflect how God relates to us as our Father—compassion, counsel, correction, confidence, celebration, challenges, and consistency. These themes gave us a powerful picture of how we can create homes where children feel safe, encouraged, and truly loved.
